When I was a young girl, I would pack my little bag and carefully plan my escape. I would succeed in running away from home many times. Of course, I never got very far, always returning home, albeit sheepishly and reluctantly, as reality would soon set in and I would understand that I had nowhere … Continue Reading
Please, tell me I’m not alone. Some days, I feel very alone. With all that’s going on in the world, life is beginning to feel surreal. Some days, I wake brimming with energy and enthusiasm.

At almost 59 (July 7th baby!), it’s as transformative today as it was 50 years ago. One thing I’ve discovered about getting older is that I’m much more fearless … Continue Reading

I’ve been blessed to know more than a few of these extraordinary humans – souls who … Continue Reading
Self sabotage can become instinctual. It’s automatic, unconscious most of the time. For a lot of women like yours truly, it becomes the friend you wish you never met. And then, we reach Midlife. We begin to learn how life really works. We begin to awaken – to learn that self sabotage can be “unlearned.” … Continue Reading
There are moments when I just don’t want to do what I do anymore. It’s draining. I desire to make a difference, a meaningful difference in this crazy world, but I’m tired of feeling like I’m failing.
